Does anyone have a problem lately in Illustrator with copying files from the program to, for example, notepad? I always used to select text with ctrl + a, then ctrl + c and paste into some notepad, email, etc. And now it does not always work 😕😕 Sometimes I have to try to do so several times. After the program copy works normally Note: Renamed by Mod

Hello @Kuba2720195150pe,

I am sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind trying to run Illustrator after rebooting your computer in Safe Mode (Windows / macOS) and checking if it helps?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

 

Thanks,

Anubhav

Haven't had the time for safe mode yet running either MS word or outlook seemed to make this issue appear. and some times i do need have illustrator running simultaniusly as at least one of those. is there a work around?

Sorry this makes me really frustraded to read that Adobe must recomend not to run these other extremly common application in a modern work enviroment. Simultanuesly while Illustrator isn't utilisng several threads in the CPU except when doing some minor things. I also know this isn't your fault. 


Hi @AdrianSnigel,

 

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I completely understand your frustration, especially when needing to run Illustrator alongside other essential applications like MS Word or Outlook in a modern workflow.

 

Your feedback is invaluable, and I will ensure it is shared with our product team.

 

Best regards,
